A worldview is the lens we use to interpret the world around us. It influences every aspect of our lives–from how we choose careers, to how we vote, to how we interact with both strangers and friends.
Because worldviews often conflict, people think and act differently from one another. Understanding different worldviews helps us have thoughtful dialogue about life’s deepest questions and a respect for the inherent dignity of every human being.
Praxis Circle created Building Worldviews to do just that: interview expert thought leaders about their perspectives on economics, politics, philosophy, religion, social issues, and more in order to expose our community to many diverse worldviews.
Listening to others and learning how to think critically is how we build strong worldviews–which in return helps us to better pursue truth, freedom, and human flourishing.

Stephen Meyer - Episode 3: Did belief in God make the Scientific Revolution possible?
This is the third of a five-part conversation with Dr. Stephen Meyer, a former geophysicist turned philosopher of science, who offers profound insights into the intersection of science, philosophy, and faith. In this episode, Dr. Meyer explains science and faith throughout the history of mankind and how the understanding of Christian God led to the Scientific Revolution in much of Europe. From St. Augustine to Robert Boyle to Dr. Meyer himself, “Theism allows science to do good.” Furthermore, we discuss where the scientific community is today and how certain attitudes and beliefs could be shifting.
Other topics we cover: the history of science, specified information and the laws of nature, how Christianity sparked the Scientific Revolution, Darwinism, the status of intelligent design, and more.
Dr. Stephen Meyer is the Director and Senior Fellow of the Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture with a Ph.D. in the philosophy of science from the University of Cambridge. He is the author of three books: “Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design” (2009) which was named Times (of London) Literary Supplement Book of the Year, the New York Times bestseller “Darwin’s Doubt: The Explosive Origin of Animal Life and the Case for Intelligent Design” (2013), and his most recent book, “Return of the God Hypothesis” (2021).
